be allowed to pass, unnoticed. We subjoin the article that our readers may see that we have not spoken too strongly- of it : • PARES, SEPT. 2.—We have once more to deplore the excesses of intolerance. An English Journal (The Truth teller) denounces to Europe atrocities committed in a prison of Dublin, called the Richmond Penitentiary. We have already announced that the Marquis of Wel lesley had ordered a rigorous inquiry to be set on foot to ascertain the facts. Violences have been exercised on prisoners to force them to abjure their faith. We know now, says the English Journal, and the Report of Commissioners charged with the inquiry will soon become public, that the Go vernor of the prison employed instruments of torture to constrain the Catholic prisoners to become Protestants. The instruments have been found, and a blacksmith has been examined who made one of a particular kind, to be fastened to the head. This man declares, that having been employed in fabricating these instruments, and in fastening them to the heads of the unconvertible prisoners (non conVertissibles), he imagined he was obeying the will of. the Government, and not that of the Protestant Inquisition. The,otlicial Report of the inquiry, continues the Truth Teller, will soon be printed. An Ecclesiastical Agent of the Catholic Archbishop of Dublin, aided by an advo cate and a short-hand writer, was present at every sitting of the Commissioners. The Correspondent of the Truth Teller writes to it : " I have seen the instrument of torture, and I own that I could n o t h ave b e li eve d t h at the heart of man was capa ble of such inhumanity as to invent any thing of the kind." The beneficial effects of the measure adopted by His Majesty's Ministers, for the admission of Foreign Oats and Pulse, begin already to be manifest. All kinds of Grain met with a very dull sale in the Corn Market yesterday, and the prices of all, with the ex ception of that of Barley, considerably declined. The price of Wheat, of course, was not so much affected as that of other descriptions of Grain ; Wheat, how ever, might be quoted about two shillings a quarter, and Oats and Rye, full six shillings a quarter lower. Beans and Peas declined in value in about the same proportion, and an expectation was entertained that the market would decline more considerably in the course of a few days. Had it not been for the ac counts of the very unfavourable nature of the harvests in the North of Europe, a much more important fall ,in the value of all sorts of Grain would have taken place ; reports were even circulated, that the Conti nental posts would be shut for the exportation of Corn, but there is no ground for entertaining such a belief, and we have no doubt, that the influence of His MA JESTY'S Order in Council, will be very considerable within a short period from the present time. The Courier and Nett' Times, 'both fall into, the error of the Hamburgh Papers, in calling our Minister at Stockholm Sir B. BLOOMFIELD. These papers at any rate ought to have known, that Sir B. BLOOM FIELD was sometime since created an Irish Peer, by the title of Baron BLOOMFIELD. W e regret to announce that the apprehensions which we expressed in our Paper of yesterday, of the alarming nature of the illness with which Lord GIF.- ,ORD had been attacked at Dover, have been realized. His Lordship expired yesterday morning at 'six o'clOck, after two days' extreme suffering from inflammation of the bowels. By the death of Lord GIFFORD, the high offices of Deputy Speaker of the House of Lords, and Master of the Rolls, become vacant. His Lordship's professional career was marked by the most extraordinary success of which there is an instance on record. Possessing neither the advantages of birth, nor splendid education, and. entering at first in the lowest branch of the' profession, he in the course of a very few years attained the very highest honours and 'emoluments of the Bar and of the Benefi— eld a British Peerage. His first advancement in his Profession was, we believe, owing to the partiality of th e late Sir V. Glass; for, although no one can deny th at he Possessed great knowledge of the Law, and acuteness in reasoning, still his talents were not of that order to command the extraordinary rapidity of his advancement, without the combination of a number r of .ortintous circumstances. Being ed Solicitor -General in May, appoint- 1817, he succeeded to the offi ce o f Attorney-General in July, 1819, and the mo d e in which he fulfilled the duties of that important post, particularly during the proceed ings against the late Queen, are known to every one. He accepted in 1824 the Chief Justiceship of the Commo n Pleas, which he had declined on a former vacan c y soon after he became Attorney-General; was created a Peer of Great Britain, by the title of Baron GiWord of St. Leonard's, and. within a few weeks afterwards was appointed Master of the Rolls'. Lord GIFFOR D was born on the 24th of February, 1779, and conse quent l y wax in the 48th married on the 6th* of A year. H e pril, 1816, HARRIICT MARIA, daughter of the Rev. EnwAßn DREWE of Broadhenbury, County of Devon, and has issu e OB ' Re is Succeeded in his titl e , by hi s eldest son, RBR FRANCIS, born the 19th of Ma rc h, 1817 . T It is melancholy to think how few honest m en ar e fatilld to co-operate in a good cause ; but, if any one doubts the truth of this observation, let him turn to thereport of what transpired yest er d ay at a meet i ng of holders of Greek Bonds, and then think of Greece `unhappy Greece ! and her strangling friends—those insidious patriots who held the word of promise to her ear, ur Bat broke it to her hope. • • We mot sufficiently express our i n di gnat i on at the ini4 mous manner in which all that appertains to Greece bein conducted in this country. Loan after I ; 0 44 hai been raised from the generous people 2' England, w h o felt for G reece w i t h a mother ' s "t 1"; but the money t h at m i g ht h ave re d eemed ue .hherties o f G reece, prevented the loss of thou 4, of her warr i ors, and tens of thousands of lovely daughters and children ; that money as never tent prom this country, excepting a sinail portion, as if to tantalise • the struggling patriots in the hour of their tribulation, with a foretaste of the blessings which they might, but would not be allowed to enjoy. And yet the people of England —nay, the friends of Grecian independence throughout the world, were gulled from time to time, with the mighty things in pro gress for the deliverance of Greece from her heathenish and barbarous oppressors. Ships were. building—arms were making—volunteers from every quarter were -in motion—all to be directed by the most chivalrous—the most enterprising Captain of the age—the mention of whose name was a guarantee for the success of the cause. All this sounded very well, and people waited very patiently, because confident of the glorious, re sult, but they reckoned without their host. A set of jugglers—mere cup-and-ball men, played , hocus-pocus with the money in a manner as extraordinary as it was disgraceful. We do not know who these parties are, and it would be well for the cause of Greeee, if she were equally ignorant, but one would suppose from they studious misapplication of the money raised for the Greeks, that it was intended -from the first for the benefit of those who now enjoy their ill- go tt en ga i ns . Th e pu b l i c wonder was often expressed at the slow progress - made in the equipping the armaments destined for Greece, but explanation, there was none—at least, nothing satisfactory. Of the last loan, amounting to about 1,200;0001., only 209,0001. was sent to Greece ! Oh, shame, where is thy blush ? This loan must, indeed, have passed through pitchy fingers, and the wonder is how any contrived to escape their contamination. For better secrecy, frigates were ordered to be built in America, but the Pacha of Egypt would have equipped them in much shorter time,—and what a price ! Then the steam-boats-- why if the managers were paid for ruining the Greek cause, they could not have gone to work more heartily. For lack of better reasons, the public were now and then insulted with the selfish dissensions among the Greek leaders, and the hopelessness of the cause, because they could not agree. Another f a b r i cat i on was industriously circulated, that the money sent to Greece was all perverted to selfish purpos es , ( wou ld that the only selfish knaves were in Greece) but the only thing certain, was, that the cause of Greece was every day getting worse, from the destitution of her resources, and the treacherous rapacity of her monied friends.—Oh ! it is galling to the spirit to contemplate such a tissue of dishonourable proceedings. The poor but brave Greeks had to contend against the increasing power of an unsparing enemy, and worse than all—the treachery of those who had sworn to support them. No- , wonder that their country was over-run, and their wives carried into captivity—that Missolonghi, after sustaining a siege worthy the de scendants of those heroes who " At Marathon and Leuctra bled," should have at last yielded to famine, though it de fied the sword. They must indeed have cold hearts who saw all this, but did not employ the means to avert it—they had the power omnipotent to save, but would not. If these worthies have a conscience, we trust it will be visited with " nightly horrors and daily spectres," till they make some amends to poor, bleed ing, and calumniated Greece, for the miseries she has suffered through their instrumentality. As for those generous people who have advanced the money, so shamefully misapplied, it is clear that they can never receive a farthing until Greece is emanci pated. But one consolation remains--4he. indepen, dente of Greece, may ev en y et be secured, if men of common honesty and determination take up the cause, and we are happy to perceive that such is likely to be the case. Now that the secrets of the prison-house are ' exposed, the public may expect to get some edifying lessons in the science of schenzing : but we hope for the sake of humanity, as well as for the honour of our country, that this foul stain upon her character may not attach to any of her sons, whose high pride has always been to foster liberty—not to overwhelm those who are struggling to obtain it. A Greek Captain is said to have betrayed the cause of independence at Athens, and to have gone over to the Turks with .500 men. The Pacha Kiutaky im mediately honoured him with the caftan, and dis charged the arrears of pay due to his troop. THE FUNDS.

Last night, between broke out on the premises of Mr. Arbuthnot, a baker, re" sidin g: in Brici(-1 , , Stratford, which threatened the de struction of a w h o l e eleven and twelve o'clock, a fire range of buildings, but from the exer dons of the firemen and the inhabitants, was soon got un der, after consumi ng the house of Mr. Arbuthnot and his next door neighbour. W. regret to add, that Mr. Ar buethnot n th had the misfort une to lose a nephew, a lad who slpt i e att. It is imagined that the fire originated from a candle being taken into the cellar, which contained shavings, and which, from some accident, became ignited.

I ROBERT Lord GIFFORD, of St. Leonard's, in the County of Devon, was a native of Exeter. His father was a respectable tradesman, carrying on the grocery business in that city, and died, leaving a large family behind him. The subject of the present memo i r , b e i ng t h en ver y y oung , th e brother of L or d G IFFORD carr i e d on th e b us i ness after the death of his father, and thus was enabled to protect and educate his brothers and sisters. The education of Lord GIFFORD, was begun at the Grammar School of Exeter, under the learned but un fortunate Dr. HA LLORAN, and from his earliest youth the law seems to have engaged the chief attention of his mind ; so much so, indeed, that even whilst yet a schoolboy it was his habit, when the Judges in the course of their circuit came to Exeter, to take his scat in the Cdurt, and remain there till the close of the day's business, and so during the continuance of the Assizes. Having finished his education, he en tered on his legal career by being articled to an attorney of his native city, and whilst in this comparatively adverse station, used to complain of the neglect he experienced from his kinsman and relation, the late Sir VICARY GIBBS. In the year 1800 he came to London, and was at that time admitted a member of the Middle Temple, and studied in the office of Mr. SYKES, the present Soli citor of the Stamp Office, who was then practising as a Special Pleader. At this time his age was 21. On the 12th February, 1808, he was called to the bar. From this time Sir VICARY Glass began to notice him, and it was to the patronage and steady affection of this great Lawyer, that Lord GIFFORD owed his first elevation in the legirl world; and his own abilities afterwards enabled him to advance his fortunes so far that he became successively Solicitor and Attorney- General, a Peer of the Realm, Lord Chief Jus tice of the Common Pleas, and finally Mas ter of the Rolls, in which elevated station he has just closed his mortal career. On the Bth of May, 1817, he was appointed Solicitor-General, and in that capacity, on the 16th of May following, was elected Master of the Bench of the Society of which he was a Member. In consequence of his ap pointment to the office of Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, he was made a Sergeant on the 6th June, 1824, and from thence was almost immediately advanced to be Master of the Rolls, in consequence of the death of the late Sir THOMAS PLUMER, whom he succeeded, so that Lord GIFFORD has not held his office much above two years. Four and twenty years have served to raise this gentleman to the highest honours of his profession, and his career, though short, seems to have been one of unexampled splen dour. Lord GIFFoRD was only forty-seven years old when he died, and it seldom falls to the lot of any man to go through the important offices that he has done in the short period of twenty-four years. A contemporary has asserted that Mr. GIFFORD was, within 15 years an Attorney's clerk and Solicitor- General of England, which certainly was not the case, although it seems, that between 17 and 18 years only elapsed between these two periods. Lord GIF FORD, as a lawyer, was never very highly esteemed, a circumstance which may be in a great measure attri buted to his comparative youth when appointed to the office of Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas; but his perceptions were quick, and he displayed great skill in stating the facts of a case, and drawing them out to his hearers so clearly and plainly, that the facts were easily understood however complicated they might be. This faculty he exercised with great effect on the occasion of the trial of the late Qualm. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. FROM LLOYD'S—(This DAY.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.—(Tins DAT.) DEATH OF LORD GIFFORI). The LORD CHANCELLOR arrived at his room soot► after nine o'clock, but before the public were admitted, a gentle man from Dover communicated to his Lordship the la mentable intelligence of the Death of Lord Gifford, Mas ter of the Rolls. The express mentioned, that his late Lordship having been attacked a fortnight ago with cholera morbas, went to Dover for the benefit of the sea air, where, for a short time he recovered, but unfortunately the vio lence of the complaint soon returned ; no dangerote; symptoms, however, appeared until Saturday afternoon, from which time his Lordship grew gradually worse, until three o'clock yesterday when he died. His wife and family were with him. When the Lord Chancellor had made this communica. Lion, he expressed the deepest regret, and sent an attendant to inform persons waiting in the - Hall, that he should post• pone all business until to-morrow. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. 130W-STREET--(THIs DAY.) DOG-STEALING.—John Smith was brought up on a charge of .having stolen a spaniel dog, the property of Mr. O'Reilly of Oxford-street. John Barton stated, that he was fetching the dog in question to the proprietor, on Sunday evening last, when he suddenly disappeared : he did not get a sight of him since until this morning,. when he saw him led by the -pri soner, who refused to give him up until he procured the assistance of an officer. The Officer stated, that the prisoner said he had pur chased the dog. The prisoner, in his defence, stated that the dog had been given to him last night in a public-house. Sir RICHARD BIRNIE.—\Vhy did you say you purchased the dog? Prisoner.—l did not say so. Officer.—Yes, you did. Prisoner.—Did I ? and if I did, of course I said so. Sir RICHARD BIRNIE.—Have you 20/. ? Prisoner.—Only fourpence halfpenny. Sir RICHARD.—Then you must go to prison for six months. As the prisoner was about to be removed, one of the Officers informed the Magistrates that the prosecutor was himself a dog stealer ; whereupon Sir RICHARD BIRNIE ordered him to be detained, and the alleged master of the , dog• to be sent for; and also that the proprietor of the public-house, in which the prisoner said he had the dog given to him, should be sent for. A CASK OF DisTitess.—.ll. Dykes made application to the Magistrates, under the following distressing circum stances :—He was a native of Flushing, and came to this country when very young, in the year 1782; he was pro prietor of the Opera Coffee-house, which he held until the Opera House was burned in 1786. He became landlord of the Talbot Hotel, in the Strand, and he was by no means a niggard, for he contributed his mite towards the voluntary subscriptions during the war; but fortune be came adverse in 1800: he was obliged to give up business. He then returned to his native country ; but all his friends were gone, and he had no person to look to for relief ; consequently he came back to this cou n t r y, and set up a chandler's shop in the parish of Newington; his wife died in 1819, and being no longer able to keep house, he went to France, .expecting to get an asylum there, he was disappointed, and returned once more to this country; he was now in the 79th year of his age, he had survived all his early acquaintance, and was destitute of all means of livelihood; his object in applying to the Magistrates was to beg they would give him permission to sell trifling articles through the country, as all he had in the world, including his wearing apparel, was not sufficient to pay for a license ; the parish allowed him but two shillings a week, and he did not like to go into the work house. Sir RICHARD BIRNIE perfectly recollected the Talbot Hotel belonging to the name of -the applicant, as also many other circumstances which he mentioned; but he regretted it was not in his power to grant his request. He was sorry to see him reduced to such a state.—Sir RICHARD very humanely wrote a letter by him to a gentleman in the parish of Newington, who, he said would do something for him, and gave him crown. The venerable appearance of the applicant, and the tale of his misfortunes, excited the compassion and commanded the respect of all who heard him. WORSHIP- STREET—( ts DAY.) Richard Jonas, a youth of respectable connexions, was charged on suspicion of robbery. Hanley, the Officer, stated, that last night he was sent Mr to the shop of Mr. Malthus, a salesman, in Whitecross street, where he found the youth now at the bar detained, he having offered a piece of Irish linen to him for sale. He questioned him as to how he became possessed of it, and he said that he had bought it in Houndsditch, for 2s. 3d. per yard, and that his name was Smith, but subsequently he said it was Jonas. On searching him he found a bunch of keys and a letter, which led bun to his lodgings in Wood-street, Cheapside, where, on examining his box, he found several new silk handkerchiefs, and two or time:, gown pieces, all new, which were now produced; he also found upon his person 2/. 17s. in money. A gentleman here stepped forward and said that the accused was in his employ; he was a Manchester ware houseman, and dealt in India silk handkerchief sand cotton goods; he had looked over the articles produced, and could identify none of them; however, he was going to take stock immediately, and then he should be better able to judge. The prisoner in defence said, that the property produced WAS all his own, and that he had purchased it from time to time. He was remanded for further examination. H.ATTON-GARDEN.—(Tais DAY). Caroline .Fitzallan ' who has been some time in custody, on the charge of stea ling a SOL note and six sovereigns, from Mr. Brooks, of Leigh-street, Burton-creseent, with whom she lived as housemaid, was again placed at the bar. On her last examination it was stated that several small notes hid been changed by Mrs. Stanley, with whom the prisoner lodged, at the shop of Mr. Bradley, a silversmith and pawnbroker in Spica!fields, This was denied by Mrs. Stanley, who was held under a recognizance of 201. to be the Golden Hart, Lamb-street present this day. Mr. Bradley was also in attendance, and whom he had known asa neigh sZitirgari fi l Pa s e f l r ti e s st , hei m stated, ir s landlord t witnesses. est Stanley, a o o n i Sunday the l3th of August, i n W cOnsiderable time, came to his bar and asked b e t i lol ia eu n re g yf e oren f ia : r a Yd. note, which she received from his w if e .

Mrs. Stanley said, that there was a little jealousy between the young couple, and she wished to have t he note back. She then left him 19 sovereigns, a nd the next day brought a pers on w h o pa i d the remaining 3 1 /., and he gave up the note. Another day or two tlepwls when Mn.s Stanley cantd• and asked °lle had been making inquiries about the note; and that he first ascertained that it was supposed to have been stolen. She requested him not to hang the poor girl, but if any guts tions were asked him to deny having given the change. This he refused. This evidence was corroborated by Mrs. Pastel', who, in addition, said, that Mrs. Stanley asked her, as a mother herself, not to say any thing about the poor girl, for the sake of her child. [The prisoner has a child nursed by Mrs. Stanley.] Mrs. Stanley, who had hitherto denied all knowledge of the transaction, was now called in, and after being cau tioned by Mr. Laing of the situation in which she stood, and of the necessity for her speaking the truth, stated that on Sunday, the 13th ult., Caroline Fitzallttn came home, and said that she had been at Mr. Brooks's. In the course of the afternoon she told her that she pas going to be married, and wanted to make some put , chases the next day. She then produced a SQL note, and asked her, could she get it changed, which she did at the Golden Hart. Several purchases were made, and pledges redeemed with apart of the money, until Mr. Brooks called some time on the Monday, and told the prisoner that he had lost a note, and she must go with him to his house. She denied all knowledge of the note but went with him. When witness found that the prisoner was detained, she began to suspect that all was not right, and exerted her self to get the note again. On going to Mr. Pastel', she hinted the circumstance to him before she got the note, and he said that he would not split for a thousand pounds, and that if fifty Officers came he would deny giving change. She afterwards redeemed the note, through the medium of a man named Isaacson, a Jew, who paid the remainder of the money, and gave her 44 Mr. Laing asked the witness, Pastel', if any such eon versation ever passed ? Mr. Pastell declared on his oath, that nothing of the kind had ever taken place. Mr. LAING again cautioned the witness, Stanley, and asked what purchases had been made at Mr. Bradley's ? Mr. Bradley give a list of articles purchased, to the amount of 71., and said that some days afterwards Mrs. Stanley came and requested that if any one made inquiries at his shop, he would deny the circumstance. This he declined, and on Mr. Brooks calling, he told him all that had occurred. Mrs. Stanley solemnly denied any such conversation. The numbers of the notes lost by Mr. Brooks, and that taken by Mr. Pastel!, aro the same. Several other witnesses were examined, but Mr. LaiNG being of opinion that the presence of Isaacson, who had redeemed the note, was indispensably necessary. The prisoner Was remanded. There is another charge against her. QUEEN SQUARE.—(Tuts Dar. ) Maria Whatley was brought up from St. Margaret's watch-house, on the following charge of robbery. John 'Richey, of Canterbury-street, Cornwall-roade Lambeth, stated, about half-past seven o'clock last night, he met the prisoner in Tothill-street, Westminster, and took her into a public house. On getting outside the door, she put her hand into his right trouser's pocket, and stole therefrom, one sovereign and a half, besides three shillings in silver. The prosecutor instantly accused her of robbing him, and demanded his money back, when the prisoner struck him, and created a mob. John Earle, a constable, said, that on hearisig a great noise near the Sessions House, he came out of his house, and saw the prosecutor in pursuit of the prisoner, whom he accused of robbing him.
